loren
Why not start now? While Loren understood Jigano's reluctance and hesitance, the summoner couldn't imagine there'd ever be a good time. Even if it's a little bit at first, that has to add up eventually. Then he sent the mental equivalent of a tired shrug to the bard. You're the music expert though.
That question should've been easy for the Launceleyn to answer, but somehow it wasn't. Finally, he sighed in his mind. I'm not sure anything makes me happy these days. But...yes. He does make me happy. The guilt welled up further. But we're very different people, from literally different worlds. And he doesn't...he doesn't know who I am. Not really. Where I've come from or what I've been through. Those thoughts were filled with sorrow.
The next question wasn't any easier to respond to. Because...this will have changed Remi and Ronin. And our relationship was already so fraught. I can't imagine they'll ever want to be friends with me again. Not either of them. Loren's resignation was apparent.

Never judge a book by its cover.
